NC's remaining regular season matches will be managed by Gong Pil-sung, the head coach of the Futures (2nd Division) League.

Kang took over as acting head coach in May 2022 when former head coach Lee Dong-wook resigned.

Under Kang's leadership, 카지노사이트 NC finished last year's regular season in fourth place and made it to the playoffs.

This year, however, the team has struggled due to injuries to key players such as Son Asub and Park Gun-woo, and is currently in ninth place in the league (60 wins, 74 losses, and 2 draws).

Kang has a career record of 197 wins, 197 losses and seven draws (0.500 win percentage) in 401 games, including his time as acting coach.
